Colfax sells 18.75 mln shrs at $18/shr in IPO

Wed May 7, 2008 8:10pm EDT


NEW YORK, May 7 (Reuters) - Colfax Corp CFX.N, which makes pumps and other fluid-handling products, sold 18.75 million shares at $18 per share in its initial public offering, above the estimated range, underwriter Merrill Lynch said on Wednesday.

Shares of Colfax, which will trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CFX," had been expected to price between $15 and $17 a share.

The company had planned to sell 7.8 million shares, while stockholders will sell an additional 10.9 million shares, according to its proxy filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Underwriters said demand was sufficiently strong to trigger the 15 percent "greenshoe" allotment beyond the 18.75 million offering.

The Richmond, Virginia-based company makes pumps, fluid-handling systems and specialty valves that are used in sectors such as oil and gas and power generation. (Reporting by Joseph A. Giannone and Jessica Hall; Editing by Braden Reddall)
